Peter Winch and the idea of immanent transcendence

Vogt, Peter (2022): Peter Winch and the idea of immanent transcendence. In: Philosophical Investigations, Bd. 46, Nr. 3: S. 289-313

Abstract

The idea of immanent transcendence is constitutive for Winch's philosophy of religion and his ethics. Winch's philosophy of religion insists on the 'immanent' dimension of religion. His ethics insists on the 'transcendent' dimension of ethics. In this sense, both religion and ethics embody a perspective 'beyond' this world and yet must have practical consequences in this world. Transcendence without immanence is idle, and immanence without transcendence is empty-this is the kernel of Winch's philosophy of religion and of his ethics.
